<p>Diana excellent commentary. This is exactly why J. Edgar Hoover considered MLK to be such a social threat. It also explains how little the media went about covering these aspects of his agenda.</p>

It is socially as cruel and blind as the practice of cannibalism at the dawn of civilization, when men ate each other because they had not yet learned to take food from the soil or to consume the abundant animal life around them.

<p>Yep and it was okay for good old MLK to be indulging in his bestial obsession with white prostitutes too and making a mockery of his entourage each time he showed up in Sweden and other foreign countries making exhaustive arrangements to ensure that his people were serviced by prostitutes at each successive convention they attended.

<p>Yep and it was okay for good old MLK to be indulging in his bestial obsession with white prostitutes too and making a mockery of his entourage each time he showed up in Sweden and other foreign countries making exhaustive arrangements to ensure that his people were serviced by prostitutes at each successive convention they attended. In the words of his follower Doctor Ralph Abernathy in his own autobiography. This clearly illustrates how Martin Luther King's I have a Wet Dream was one of his true incentives during the course of his crusades! Just another inconvenient history we tend to overlook when it comes to Democrat heroes are after a closer look don't appear to be that heroic.</p>
